Magic Affinity - Nicholas Draper

Résumé :
To the majority of humans and fellow warlocks alike, Magan Corvina is exceptionally ravishing. She has flawless skin, hair that blows even in the absence of wind, and a crimson red dress that commands total attention. She is perfect in the eyes of Justin Admior, an ordinary human from Sau Ce Ordecia, a harmony city populated by both humans and warlocks. Just one look at her was all it took to captivate him, but the feeling definitely wasn't mutual, because Corvina must be married to a wizard in order to fully abuse the Bond of Matrimony, a spell that combines energies to allow lesser warlocks to possibly hold their own against any sorcerer no matter their rank. Justin is aware of this, and begins to study magic spells so that Corvina will notice him. In one final attempt to impress her, Justin unintentionally steps into a portal that leads to a foreign magical world that's different from planet earth in almost every way possible. The Magic Kingdom is full of potent threats, most of them being plague creatures that have vicious claws and fangs, however the really serious threat comes from Queen Zeetress, ruler of Southern Arcanus, who is also the reason behind Corvina's desperation to marry a wizard and take vengeance for her murdered sister. Now stuck in an unfamiliar world, Justin's only hope is to learn advanced magic spells, defeat blood thirsty monsters, and befriend wise and powerful warlocks that can aid him. In a world where seven suns shine at the same time, where small children have the power to guide lost souls to the afterlife, and chronos itself can be thrown off balance with a simple incantation, there's no definite way of knowing whether Justin, Corvina, and her husband, Merlin Ambrosias will make it back to earth safely.
